hair relaxing

[randy6969]

i have thick wavy hair and i was getting haircut and my barber suggested i get it relaxed to make it look much better when its straight... i was wondering if anyone has tried this.... or knows about it... i dont want my hair to start thinnning, or shedding because of the treatment....


thanksfor any input guys

A friend of mine gets this done as he has a bit of curl in his hair also. Apparently it's good .. his hair always lokos pretty straight and relxed..haha. However.. i think it depends on teh climate you're in too.. salt water, and blistering heat are no good for it.. a chemical thing

yeah im going to give it a shot and see how it works out for me ... thanks for the advice

Whoever does it for u make sure they dont touch your scalp with the chemical, it has to be done so that it stays about 1-2cm away from your scalp, so for short hair its hard. The reason is if it touches your scalp there will be chemical burns and hairloss from that.
